Text field issue in Sub Form

Hello Experts,
I am creating my very first Adobe Form for my client. I have created a subform with "Flowed" content. I have one Text Field in that sub form. When I try to place the second Text Field adjacent to that, it's not letting me do that. It's placing the Text Field under the first one. Can you please let me know how to overcome this issue?
Thanks a lot for your help. I did search and could not find any solution for this.
Also, I tried to change the position manually, but the X: and Y: positions are greyed out for me in Layout pallette.

Hi sam,
When you have selected the sunform to be "flowed" , there is an adjacent field where you mention the typr of flow - 'Top to bottom ' or 'Western text' . If you specify as 'western text' then you could get the desired result. you can use rectangles etc for any alignment based on your layout requirement.

XML Data in Text Field Issue

LC ES 8.2.1.3
I have a web service that outputs XML data and Designer calls the webservice and the XML data populates a text field. This works fine.
My problem is getting the data out of the text field to populate different fields in my form. I have done many searches and have tried many different things but still can't get the data out. I have made sure my form is dynamic xml.
Here is the last thing I have tried:
-------Begin Code -----------
Placed in testData:Intialize and the connectionSet is placed in Page1:Initialize.
var myXML = XMLData.parse(xmlData.rawValue, false);
var subNames = XMLData.applyXPath(myXML, "//Subordinates/Subordinate/full_name");
if (subNames == null) {
//no data
} else if (subNames.length == null) {
//not array, just a single value
topmostSubform.Page2.testData.addItem(subName.value);
} else {
   for (var i = 0; i < subNames.length; i++) {
    topmostSubform.Page2.testData.addItem(subName.item(i).value);
-------End Code -----------
I have been working on this for 3 days and still can't get it to work. The closest I have come is output in my testData text field that said "Object23485968".
Thank you in advance for your help

I must be missing something somewhere becuause I couldn't get it to work. Here is the xml that I am getting back when I invoke the CFC from within Workbench. This data is assigned to an XML type varialbe called 'xmlOutput'. I then create a data connection in my form to the service I created in Workbench and bind the return data to a text field (with multiple lines). When I bind the data I have the option to choose "document" or "element". Element doesn't return anything, unless I am doing something wrong, so I have to choose Document.
With the xmlOutput below I do get more than one subordinate returned. I only showed one for simplicity.

PDF form text fields' options change when opened in READER on a MAC.

I created a PDF form using Adobe X PRO. All fields are UNCHECKED for Property/Options/ "scroll long text". I save and distribute the form as a "reader extended pdf/enable additional features" so it can be saved and returned using READER.
When a Mac user opens the extended form in Adobe READER, ALL the text fields change to scroll. When he returns the completed form to me, every text field, even signature and date fields, are changed to scroll text.
What is happening in the transition from PC to MAC?

Preview is the default PDF viewer on the Mac. It should never be used with PDF forms. Just let them know that they should use Adobe Reader. Provide a link or URL where it can be downloaded and let them know that it's free.
There are things you can do so that it doesn't work in Preview, but it involves some scripting. If interested in this approach, post again.

My text fields will not expand

I have a suggestion form that i created in adobe livecycle. The text fields will not expand when there is more text than what fits in the box. A scroll bar comes up when there is more text than what can fit, but this will not do. I have the 'expand to fit' checked and allow multiple lines. Any help?

Hi,
Have a look at this example of the process for making fields dynamic: http://assure.ly/g80MVY.
A couple of pointers:
The form will need to be saved as a Dynamic XML Form in the save-as dialog.
You should group objects that don't need to be flowed into a Positioned subform(s), as step 3 will move things around.
The page will need to be set to Flowed in the Object > Subform palette.
That should get you most of the way there.

Resizing Text Fields Causes Adobe to Hang

Good Afternoon All-
I have a PDF of our company floor plan. I added text fields over each office with the person's name and telephone number. There are over 100 text fields. I created this form in Adobe Acrobat Pro 8. I have since upgrade to 10 Pro. When I open the form and try to resize one of the text fields, Adobe will hang for on average, 1 minute or two and then come back to life. It only seems to happen when I resize or try to move a text field from this PDF. I tried adding text fields into other PDF's and they resize/move fine without Adobe hanging. Does anyone know what the issue might be? I even tried opening it up on another PC that has Acrobat Pro 11. I also tried using the PDF Optimizer and making it compatible with Acrobat 10 and still no dice. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi AdobeDonutGeek,
Based on your description, this would be one where it might be better to contact our technical support for assistance.

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?

How do you grey out a radio button if a text field is blank in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro?
So this what I'm trying to do:
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
(     )   |                  |
(     )   |TEXT FIELD|
I have a radio button: (     )
and a text field: |TEXT FIELD|
The third text field is blank, and I would like for the radio button next to it greyed out (user can't click on it) since the text field is blank. Is this possible to achieve? I'm assuming I'll have to use javascript, but what would the code be and would it be entered in the javascript editor for the text field or the radio button?
Thanks in advance guys

Hey, thanks, but it didn't work
I have the text fields as read only. Could that be why it's not working? Should I make the fields not read only?
Thanks,

How to use the separate symbol in the text field in the adobe form.

Hi,experts,
I dont know how to use the separate symbol to make a paragraph separate into several lines correctly in the text field in the adobe form.
Action:
1. config the ADS successfully.
2. create the adobe form with a mult-line textfield(binding the 'remark' context in the interface of the form) using sfp.
3. create a WDA for invoke the form and transfer the 'remark' context data.
I use the following codes to display the paragraph in the PDF document:
CONCATENATE
'1、aaaaaaaaaaa；'
'2、bbbbbbbbb '
'3、ccccccccccc'
'4、ddddddddd'
INTO remark .
lo_nd_z_hr_php_payslip->set_attribute(
EXPORTING
name = `REMARK`
value = remark ).
But I found all the content aren't paragraph separate correctly in the text field in the adobe form when I run the WDA.
Could you please give me some hints to make the paragraph separate correctly in PDF document? Thanks a lot in advance!
My email is : [email protected]
Best regards,
Tao

Hi,
If it is just a one word value then you could use this in the exist event;
this.rawValue
= util.printx(">?<*",this.rawValue);
This changes the first character (represented by the ?) to uppercase (represented by the >) and all trailing characters (represented by the *) to lowercase (represented by the <).
If you wanted something more general ... if they could also enter a middle name then you could call a function like;
function toTitleCase(textValue)
return textValue.toLowerCase().replace(/\b[a-z]/g, function replacer(match) { return match.toUpperCase(); });
This uses a regex to change all lowercase letters following a word boundary to uppercase.

Issue with length of form text fields in Firefox in OSX

I've just spotted an issue with this in a page on a site, with two forms next to each other. (the limited space has highlighted it.)
Basically FF on the Mac is making the text fields longer than any other browser :
http://www.goodsafariguide.com/trade/loginfail2.php
If anyone knows a fix for this, that would be great.
If not, I'll just reduce their length so that at least they're not squashed in any browser (even though they'll be a bit short in every browser other than FF Mac).
http://www.goodsafariguide.com/trade/loginfail2.php
Thanks.

Thanks guys - its just not something I've really noticed before, as most forms I do have enough width compared to this page where I have two side by side.
Will pop that bit of CSS in.

How to place two text fields on the same line in adobe

I am trying to create a form on adobe and I would like to have two unique text fields on the same line. Is this posible?

If you are using FormsCentral it is, the fields can be placed "side by side" in a row. There is a "+" sign on the right side of the field that brings up a toolbar to add a field adjacent. You can also right click on a field and select "Insert beside", or you can "drag and drop" fields next to one another or to a new row.
Thanks,
Josh
PS - One note, if you are using the "desktop" application of FormsCentral that comes with Acroat Pro XI make sure the application is up to date by either using the "Help" - "Check for updates" menu item or by signing into the application so that you have the latest features including the side by side layout.

PDF File in Preview doesn't show text fields, but OK in Adobe Acrobat

Someone emailed me a pdf document which I opened in Preview. All the the text fields where there was supposed to be data were blank.
I then opened in Acrobat and everything was there. Saved a copy from Acrobat and opened in Preview and the text was finally visible.
Anyone have a clue why this would be happening?
I'm running Leopard 10.5.1

Looks like a Fillout box for a Form. If that is what it is, click on Edit form under Forms menu. Click on the box while holding down control key choose Properties when Properties box open look for Justification for side to side and top to bottom should be under Text Tab.

A client requested to create an employee details form in which few text fields has to be in Chinese language. I selected "Arial Unicode MS" for that fields. In final PDF I am able to insert text in Chinese text fields in Acrobat. But I cant insert text when i opened the final PDF in Adobe Reader. (only these Arial Unicode MS fields are disabled). All other fields (English) are in Arial font., they are working in both (Acrobat and Reader). As these forms will be distributed to people who may don't have Acrobat and only the Free Adobe Reader. Can someone please advice me how to solve this problem.
Thank you

Make sure the format of the date strings provided by the calendar is what you are expecting. Or use the "formattedValue" for the input strings.

How to generate barcode from text field in adobe form???

hello everyone,
I'm new in this forum and I hope that there are people who can answer my question.
I use Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I have converted a Word template to a PDF template and everything works fine.
I would like to generate a barcode of the contents of a text field (by the users), for example the following format 0123-A123456-11.
I have tried in various ways but it has not worked. The barcode becomes unstructured and unreadable.
Does anyone know how to do it step by step?
Best regards!
Nader from Sweden

Hi,
You can insert dynamic barcodes into your form using LC Designer.
You should do a search here as dynamic barcodes has been covered by by Steve Walker in detail. For example:
BARCODE 128 - possibility of binding 2 data fields to the barcode
Paperforms barcodes
Using Barcode in Acroforms
However one thing to bear in mind is that dynamic barcodes will not work in Reader unless the form has been Reader enabled using LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product. Option 4 in this summary:
Good luck,
Niall
